Not a Gibson, but it sorta belongs here ...

Have you guys been aware of this here:

A guy named Bill Rowe (ex-Jetboy, the 80ies Californian glam band) is behind these. I'm no artificially aged instruments guy, but if it rocks your boat, then these seem to be well-done - and pricey!

Yes, they've been posted before in Other Bass Brands, probably been at least 2 years ago. Nice looking shapes but I hate relics.

Jetboy? Never heard of them.

You didn't miss much. They were landfill LA rock (though stemming from initially San Francisco).

Landfill - how appropriate. There was tons of landfill around during that era. The few bands that weren't unfortunately got lumped in with the offal.

I was kidding. I had definitely heard of them.

They've done some reunion shows. This is from 2019. They sound as good as they ever did

Even I considered them as relatively obscure!

I have no intention of ever growing up or acquiring good taste in music = I like Jetboy

That's a very good quality and rare Def Leppard demo, Mark, thanks for sharing!

How insidiously nasty you guys can be!!! 

Ah I see why I missed that. I must have thought that was just another Kiss topic, bound to derail into the Ritchie Blackmore trap. 

A reasonable assumption.
